Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were used to estimate genetic relationships between two seasonal immigrant forms (namely fall-run and spring-run) of Caspian trout Salmo trutta caspius. In this regard, 62 fin tissue samples were collected from southern parts of the Caspian Sea basin and examined with 16 oligodecamer primers to asses their genetic diversity as well as probable s...

the main objective of this study was to assess genetic comparison of two migratory forms of caspian trout salmo trutta caspius namely fall-run and spring-run. owing to the lack of information on its genetic differences, 5 microsatellite loci were used for 58 sample analyses. genomic dna was extracted from caudal fin using roche dna extraction kit and each pcr reaction was performed in a 25 ?l r...

Neutral genetic markers are routinely used to define distinct units within species that warrant discrete management. Human-induced changes to gene flow however may reduce the power of such an approach. We tested the efficiency of adaptive versus neutral genetic markers in differentiating temporally divergent migratory runs of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) amid high gene flow owing t...

this study was investigated reproductive differences in fall and spring migrants of caspian lamprey (caspiomyzon wagneri) in the shirud river (southern caspian sea)in 2008. 89 and 15 specimens were sampled in in spring and fall, respectively. generally, fall migratory fish had a significantly lower condition factor (cf) compared to the spring migrants. there was significant relationship between...

There are four distinct runs of Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the Central Valley, named after their primary adult return times: fall, late-fall, winter, and spring run. Estimating run-specific composition juveniles entering leaving Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta is crucial for assessing population status processes that affect juvenile survival through Delta. Historically, run captu...
